"If I Was Your Girlfriend" is the second single from American musician Prince's 1987 double album Sign o' the Times. The song was a hit in the United Kingdom but was only a minor hit in America. It was originally from the Camille project of 1986, which was to be released under the guise of Prince's alter ego named Camille. The song is delivered from an androgynous male perspective to a woman, wherein Prince explores the possibilities of a more intimate relationship if he were his lover's platonic girlfriend. Trouser Press names the song as one of the album's highlights, noting that it "redefines a relationship in a surprisingly mature way." It is believed that "If I Was Your Girlfriend" deals with the jealousy Prince felt at the close bond shared between then girlfriend/fiancée Susannah Me

  • If I Was Your Girlfriend est une chanson du musicien Prince issue de l'album Sign o' the Times. Le titre fut à l'origine né du projet Camille (1986), qui devait être publié sous couvert d'un alter ego appelé Camille, plutôt que par Prince. La chanson est interprétée d'un point de vue masculin à une femme, dans laquelle Prince explore les possibilités d'une plus intime relation s'il était l'amour platonique de la petite amie. (fr)
  • If I Was Your Girlfriend is de tweede single van het dubbelalbum Sign “☮” the Times uit 1987 van de Amerikaanse artiest Prince. Hoewel het nu tot de bekendste nummers van Prince hoort, deed het nummer het indertijd niet bijster goed in de Amerikaanse hitlijsten. Dit kwam waarschijnlijk door de gebruikte androgyne falsetto van Prince. Het nummer is oorspronkelijk geschreven voor het Camille-project uit 1986, dat zou worden uitgegeven onder het vrouwelijke alter-ego Camille. Desondanks is de tekst geschreven vanuit het perspectief van een man naar een vrouw, waarin de mogelijkheden tot een intiemere relatie worden verkend. Muzikaal gezien is het nummer gebouwd op een bas- en drumpatroon gepunteerd met een keyboardlijn die een ongelukkig gevoel oproept. De versnelde vocals van Prince zijn emo (nl)
